Who you calling Koi?

Sunday, 19 May 2013

Ok, so it's a very corny blog title but it's the best I can do at the moment.

I hope I don't have another week like the last for a very long time. I was so exhausted on Friday night that Wade gave me a 10pm curfew! I was desperate to spend some time in my sewing room and I had very limited brain capacity so I decided to make myself another pair of Amy Butler Lounge Pants.

I bought this koi print flannelette at Spotlight recently with the lounge pants pattern in mind. There's nothing nicer than a pair of cozy comfy flannel pj pants on a cold day. The only thing I did differently to last time was to add an extra 2 inches to the length and leave off the hem bands ( I haven't touched the coat I mention in that post, it's still waiting to be sewn up).

These pants are designed for comfort, not figure flattery (on me anyway), but I love them. The fabric makes me smile, they feel terrific and I finished them before my imposed bedtime! Now I just need to make a pj top to go with them.
